PREFACE
This volume contains the papers presented at the 16 ht Symposium on Theory and Practice of
Robots and Manipulators, Warsaw, June 21-24, 2006. All papers had been reviewed by two
independent reviewers before they were accepted for final publication and presentation at the
Symposium. The event was organized under the supervision of international Steering Committee
consisting "fo M. Ceccarelli (IFToMM Secretary General University of Cassino, Italy), I-Ming
Chen (Nanyang Technological University, Singapore), B.Heimann (Chair of Technical Com-
mittee Robotics, Hannover University, Germany), E.Martin (Space Agency, Canada), O.Khatib
(Stanford University, USA), W.Schiehlen (CISM representative, Technical University Munich,
Germany), O.Takanishi (Waseda University, Japan), T.Zielihska (Warsaw University of Techno-
logy, Poland). Local Organizing Committee consisted of T.Zielihska, M. Olszewski, C.Zielihski,
K.K¢dzior from Warsaw University of Technology, K.Kozlowski from Poznah Technical Univer-
sity, and K. Tchoh from Wroclaw Technical University. The symposium was held at the Faculty
of Mechatronics, Warsaw University of Technology.

The 1 ts CISM-IFToMM Symposium on Theory and Practice of Robots and Manipulators was
held on Sept. 5-8, 1973, in Udine, Italy, not long after IFToMM had been founded in 1969. The
first ROMANSY, or Ro.Man.Sy, as the Symposium used to be referred ,ot marks the beginning
of a long-lasting partnership between two international institutions, CISM, the Centre Interna-
tional des Sciences Mgcaniques, and IFToMM, the International Federation for the Promotion
of Mechanism and Machine Science. ROMANSY is one of the activities of IFToMM Technical
vi Preface
Committee for Robotics. The Symposium has taken place every even-numbered year with only
one exception for the first symposium. It is traditionally a limited gathering of scientists that
encourages informal discussions and focuses on recent trends and advances in robotics. The
volume is organized into nine chapters with more than 50 papers in all The Authors from 17
countries discussed the problems grouped in the following thematic parts:
Robot Design, Mechanism Performance,
Motion Planning and Synthesis,
Control Methods and Systems,
Humanoids,
Biology and Robotics - Specialized Tools and Methods,
Innovative Technologies in Robotics,
Space Robotics,
i Vision and Navigation.
The key-note presentations dealt with the problems of the coexistence of humans and personal
robots providing assistance to people in their housework, or to the elderly and the handicapped,
as well as the robots working with or without human help in space missions. It is interesting
that the cultural aspects influencing the robotics research also attracted the attention of the
Scientists. Modeling and control methods of complex human-like robotic systems are developing
very fast with the goal to produce a robot with human motion skills. oT effectively work and
cooperate with ,su robots must exhibit abilities that are comparable to those of humans. The
speakers focused on the ongoing efforts to design and develop human-friendly robotic systems
that can safely and effectively interact and work with humans. The progress in robotics is
also stimulated by human will to explore outer space. This issue creates specific requirements,
limitations and targets for the designers. Standardization in space robots is necessary to
enable the creation of advanced cooperative systems, where different technologies, requirements,
control systems etc. meet. Finally, standardization is a critical element in having large numbers
of robots working safely side-by-side their human counterparts.
The 16 ROMANSY solicited papers providing a vision of the evolution of the robotics discipli-
th
nes and identifying new directions in which these disciplines are foreseen to develop. The papers
are devoted to novel robots, humanoids and bio-robotics problems, challenges in control and
motion synthesis, kinematical and dynamical analysis of robotic systems, perception problems,
space robots, and to other promising innovative mechanisms and technologies. We hope that
the material included in this volume does not limit itself to just reporting the ongoing research,
but will also stimulate the Reader to create new ideas and solutions, as: ,,Every scientists is
an artist and every artist is a scientist in a part" (from: Summa Technologiae, by Stanislaw
Lem, 1964, Wydawnictwo Lubelskie).
